Love Light & Trim the Tree with Twinkle

Join us for our annual Love Light Tree Ceremony – a special candlelight ceremony where our tree will be lit by one of our former pediatric patients. Following the ceremony, join us for Trim the Tree with Twinkle for holiday crafts, ornament making and pictures with Santa. Plus, help decorate a tree for the Children’s Hospital.

Free parking is available in the P1 Green Visitor Deck. Take the sky bridge to the main lobby to access the courtyard.

About Love Light

The Love Light Tree tradition began in 1985 with the generosity of Dr. Bill and Coleen Lee, who donated the first Love Light Tree to the WakeMed Raleigh Campus in memory of their son, Matthew William Lee (March 5, 1979 – November 26, 1984). Today, the tradition continues throughout the year as Love Light Tree donations are made in honor or memory of someone special. Each year, the tree is lit by one of WakeMed’s former pediatric patients.
